For Chronic Pain: Oxycodone 30 Mg Tablets used to be effective for chronic pain. However, since the start of the "Opioid Crisis" & the medication started becoming less & less effective. I do not think this is a "coincidence" either. KVK Tech is one of the worst manufacturer's their oxycodone is like taking a sugar pill anymore. It's one of the worst brands on the market in terms of effectiveness. This medication has been changed & the public was not made aware of it guaranteed. |

For Chronic Pain: Xtampa does not work. It says take 1 every 12 hours. For me it lasts around 3-4 hours max. I also take 800mg ibuprophen Oxicodone 10/325 worked good. It would give me 4 hrs during the day, where I was pain free. I felt like I had a little bit of a life. Anyways, I fell which caused a compression fracture in L1 on my spine. My doctor knows how much pain I'm in and prescribed me oxycodone 20mg. My insurance made me get the "generic" one. So now I have to go to a pain clinic. My appointment is on the 10th. So, thats my story.. It does not work. For Chronic Pain: Been on this for months, just don't understand why I'm having side effects, as my doctor says everything is the same, just time release. The first 4 weeks head aches so severe I couldn't put in a full day. I'm a secretary, so on computer screen all day. This is what gave me the head aches I believe, along with meds. I also got very nauseous, dizzy, and extremely moody. I put on 20 pounds once I was told to eat a fatty diet with this meal, as I guess the fats help breakdown the medicine, doctor never told me this, but helped a lot with being sick all the time. Doctor finally listened, as I was tired of being in a cloud all day. Also anxiety, and sleeplessness... This medicine may work for some, just not me.. |

For Chronic Pain: I am with everyone. Rhodes pain meds do not have near the same pain relieving quality as the oxycodone brand KVK. It’s very obvious why people are seeking other methods of pain control like heroin or taking to much of their prescription. FDA please please check into what is going on with RHODES oxycodone because they are ineffective and I swear they have terrible side effects. And why are the white RHODES like 3 times as large as the KVK little blue pills? Even KVK has not been like they used to be but way better then RHODES!
